The article on proton exchange membrane fuel cell vehicles published in the April–June 2018 issue
of Energy Future is a highly informative and technical article indeed. It helped me in one of the
projects at college. I also strongly agree with the authors (Radhey Shyam Meena, et al.) that while
India is starting from a relatively weak position in battery manufacturing globally, the scale of
its market opportunity is attracting strong interest from leading companies in India and globally
as well.

The April–June 2018 issue of Energy Future with its theme on energy
storage is replete with apt articles. Needless to say that nature stores solar
energy as hydropower and biomass; our challenge is to concentrate the
electrical energy derived from solar and wind energy into both portable
and stationary stored energy that is effi ciently and rapidly convertible,
Thank you very much for your without air pollution, back into electrical energy. Today’s challenge is

encouragement. The editorial the design of an electrochemical technology that can perform safely
the task of electrical-energy storage and recovery at a rate and cost that
team of Energy Future will ensure are competitive with the performance of the well-established fossil fuel
technologies.

We welcome your suggestions and I have been reading TERI’s Energy Future magazine since the time I landed
comments to further improve our in India from the US in 2013. I must say that the magazine publishes
exhaustive articles on a chosen energy theme in each quarter. This time
content and presentation. also I liked the coverage and the in-depth analysis. The product update
(boxofscience.com) is also very interesting. They are doing a stupendous
work. The innovative methods of learning/teaching created by them are an
